Indirect and Direct team members

Indirect and Direct team members

A Team in your organisation may be made up of both Indirect and Direct team members - so what's the difference?

If I am a member of the Sydney Process Improvement team and I receive a notification from Teamgage to contribute a Huddle submission into the Process Improvement team, then I would be considered a direct member of that team. However, in the organisational hierarchy this team sits under another team/department, the Change Management team, and that team subsequently reports into the Office of Chief Information Officer team. Therefore my Huddle submission will actually also "roll-up" into the Huddle dashboard for both of those teams and I would be considered an indirect member of those teams:

Example team structure
  1. Entire Organisation 
    1. Senior Leadership Team
    2. Office of Chief Information Officer team
      1. Change Management team
        1. Sydney Process Improvement team
When you are looking at the Members tab on the Team Details it will show you the total number of members - with the total number of direct members in brackets (Eg. Members 10 (0 direct)). You can also toggle list of team members to see those that are direct vs. indirect using the "Show Indirect Members" checkbox:
